Reasons we have the Prison Outreach Program:

• To help fellow human beings.

• To present an unbiased understanding of Islam to prisoners who seek to learn, hence, giving them a vehicle to reintegrate back into society by being more spiritual human beings and productive citizens.

• To help Canada deal with offenders in a structured fashion so that they do not reoffend and thus, become law abiding citizens.

We find it as our duty as Muslims to contribute back into society by helping prisoners stand on their feet and regain their integrity. We believe that everyone deserves a second chance to do the right thing.

O Messenger, say to those who are captives in your hands: "If Allah findeth any good in your hearts, He will give you something better than what has been taken from you, and He will forgive you: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful." (Surah Al-Anfal, 70)
